Fight breaks out during podcast interview of mayoral candidate

Police confirm they were called to the location and made two arrests after the brawl broke out.

ATLANTA -- An interview with a mayoral hopeful ended in a fight on Monday - but not involving the candidate or the host.

It began as part of a live podcast between Maynard Eaton and candidate Keisha Lance Bottoms at BQE Restaurant and Lounge on Edgewood Avenue. However, just minutes into the interview, shouting and shuffling erupts off-camera.

Police confirm they were called to the location and made two arrests after the brawl broke out. Both were charged with disorderly conduct while being under the influence.

And while the fight itself never appears on the screen, the chaos can be read on the somewhat annoyed faces of both Eaton and Lance-Bottoms. The candidate soon leaves and the stream ends.

Police said a report is not yet available.
